Oh, how did that happen?

So you know how you go to sleep and you wake up and hours have passed but it seems like minutes?
That's what happened to the second half of 2008.

Zombies high five!
11:26 am ~ Nemo's Fishbowl ~ Oct. 2008 ~ Week of 10/27/08
An idea for a scene and running gag in a zombie flick...
Scene: two zombies who, for some reason give each other high five (perhaps pre-zombie buddies and this is still instinctive for them, even post-zombification?)
Now these zombies are of the 'flesh seriously starting to rot variety' - and their hands are rotting - so their handbones get mangled and caught up with each other. They are locked together! (think people-with-braces kissing). Hilarity ensues as they are now (post-mortem) conjoined zombies - with all the 'staying attached to each other' comedy you'd expect. If this joke wears thin, then further development could involve one zombie ending up with the limb of the other attached (after a failed elbow incident?)... the other zombie being then the butt of a bunch of 'armless' jokes
Note: I may extend and revise this idea (which is less than 24hours old and all thanks to Kitten and David) further on my wiki... please comment here or there... http://wiki.thorx.net/wiki/MovieScenes#Zombie ...any major rewrites I'll feed back to here also.

Zombie Q&A
11:02 pm ~ Dr. Roberto Le Camembert's Blog ~ Oct. 2008 ~ Week of 10/27/08
You never know when people's unexplained love for zombies will crop up.
I found this today, after playing around on answerbag for the last couple of days.http://www.answerbag.com/c_view/5446
It's a category devoted to zombies. Brilliant!
Now for those who don't know what answerbag is, it's kind of like yahoo answers, but it seems less about getting the most correct answer as about making people THINK you have the best answer. For some reason it's decided to make answering questions into a competition, and as such, there's that elitist attitude that everyone has come to expect from such sites.
Basically the older users move in packs, voting up each other's answers and congratulating each other on being ever so smart, all the while complaining about newer users, and how much better it was before anyone else knew about it.
Anyway, I've got an account there, and I'm sometimes helpful, and other times a complete arse. It makes me feel better about myself when people don't know if they should trust my advice or not.

On the nature of my head
12:21 am ~ mr oCean's Estuary ~ Sep. 2008 ~ Week of 09/22/08
Some people believe people were made from clay. Even if we were, I'm glad we didn't stay that way.
I'm glad my head's not made of Plasticine. If it were, I'd always be fiddling with it, making adjustments to my face, never quite content. And not only that: like a hirsuit chap always worried about getting food caught in his beard, I'd always be checking that bits hadn't been squished or moved out of place. And of course, in checking everything was in order, I would inevitably squish some key feature out of shape.

Spam

Not quite the tinned stuff that you see in supermarkets, so much as the electronic kind on the interwebs.
I'm going to start replying to spam... you know, just to see what happens. Hopefully hilarity will ensue, in which case watch this space for said hilarity. In case it doesn't, pretend that this never happened.OK, spam ahoy!

If I actually had a revelation, I have forgotten what it was.

Emotional residue
01:13 pm ~ The Cave of Ickis ~ June 2008 ~ Week of 06/16/08
A word of warning
People can have emotional residues left over from pleasant or unpleasant experiences. Places and items can too - they can project emotions - or at least give people the feelings of certain things... But maybe the things with the greatest emotion residue are songs.
Never use your favourite songs as bandaids when you are recovering from something emotionally traumatic. That song with take on some of that emotional residue and forever be tainted.
